Zeeheldenbuurt, Delft
NeighbourhoodThis 1915 apartment on the Rotterdamseweg sits in a quiet pocket of Delft, where the bustle of the city centre gives way to leafy streets. At 118 m² it's spacious for a flat of this era, with high ceilings and original details likely intact. The energy label F means heating costs will be significant, but the asking price of €475,000 is keen, 15% below the neighbourhood average of €560,375, making it a rare find among apartments in Delft.
Two residents give the neighbourhood Zeeheldenbuurt a 7.7 out of 10. One says: "It is quiet, no bikes stolen, and a very nice location." Another adds: "When you cycle from the city centre or the station, you go from busy and chaotic to very quiet." Both note limited green space but appreciate the peace. The area is a mix of students and families, with many single-person households and a high proportion of pre-war homes.
For groceries, Jumbo is just around the corner, with Albert Heijn a five-minute walk away. Primary schools are within walking distance, the International School Delft is a couple of streets away, and RK Basisschool de Oostpoort is a ten-minute walk. The municipality Delft offers a compact city centre with restaurants and a library all within a ten-minute stroll.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Björnd Makelaardij. The price and details are current as of the listing date.

We do have some contact with a few neighbours but otherwise there is no sense of community as far as I know. It is quiet, no bikes stolen, and a very nice location and good rent. By car, it is unclear with navigation for people who are not from Delft.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living in the Zeeheldenbuurt for four years now, and I really like it. When you cycle from the city centre or the station, you go from busy and chaotic to very quiet. I live there as a student, and although we never have any problems with the neighbours, I can imagine that this could be annoying for residents in other neighbourhoods. There aren't many green spaces. There are a few small parks within walking/cycling distance.

About Rotterdamseweg 15, Delft
The asking price is 15% below the average asking price in the Zeeheldenbuurt (€560,375) and also below the median (€460,000). Given the 118 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to about €4,025, which is well under the neighbourhood average of €5,529 per m². So it's priced keenly, though the energy label F means higher running costs.
The Zeeheldenbuurt has a mix of students and families. One resident notes it's "pleasant, safe" for both. There are 190 households with children, and several primary schools within walking distance. However, green spaces are limited, the nearest park is about a ten-minute walk away.
Delft station is 1.4 km away, about a 15-minute walk or a short cycle. The area is well-connected by bike to the city centre and university.
The energy label is F, which is poor. This means the home is not well insulated and heating costs will be high. In the neighbourhood, 36% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war building, but you should budget for significant energy bills.
Yes, Jumbo is just 400 metres away, and Albert Heijn is about 500 metres. There's also an AH to go and a SPAR within a few streets, so daily shopping is very convenient.
The Zeeheldenbuurt has two reviews on, with an average score of 7.69 out of 10. Both reviewers highlight the quiet atmosphere and good location, though one mentions a lack of community feel.
